A winery in Sandpoint, ID has begun a program designed to help reduce their customers' consumption of glass bottles. Born out of frustration with the local recycling program, Steve and Julie Meyer of Pend d'Oreille Winery have begun offering their customers 1.5L magnums that can be refilled. Similar in concept to how brewery patrons can purchase glass "growlers" which can be refilled at the brewery as often as desired, these magnums allow wine lovers an opportunity to purchase wine at a discount while doing something nice for the environment. Each magnum comes filled for $25, and refills are a mere $16. They have silkscreened labels with a space for the owner to write his or her name. After each use, all you have to do is wash with a small amount of detergent, rinse well, and bring it back for a refill. Now that's a great idea!
